Hello,

When I establish a vpn connection to my office via 868L router, the connection drop every 2 mins. I don't have this problem with my old DIR-655.

Any suggestion to setup the router for vpn connection?

Here is my current setting:
Firewall:
 SPI enabled
 UDP:TCP Endpoint Filtering: Endpoint Independent

Application Level Gateway Configuration: PPTP, IPSec, RTSP, SIP

• Link>What Firmware version is currently loaded? Found on routers web page under status.
• What region are you located?

Did you have any specialized settings for the VPN on the 655?

FurryNutz,

Firmware Version:1.01 Fri 12 Apr 2013
and Im living in Hong Kong.

I don't have any special setting of my previous DIR-655. Just remember I have to enable PPTP.

[FurryNutz]

Ensure your settings are correct and VPN service is set up correctly.

I recommend that you phone contact D-Link support, ask for level 2 or higher support. If nothing else has changed accept for the router, possible router issue.

Please let us know what they say.

Thanks for your advice.

I am asking the reseller as the local dlink website doesn't have a technical support info. 

And I hope reseller has the knowledge to fix this issue ?

Does D-Links Taiwan site have any support info?

Got the latest firmware FW101b06 from local Hong Kong distributor, and it fixed the vpn problem.
Before that, I asked taiwan offical technical support too, but they gave me the FW101b05, and it didn't fix the issue.

And I found something interesting, when I open BitTorrent and VPN together, the VPN will be disconnected.
I already disabled the "remote gateway" in my vpn profile, so it isn't the BT traffic cause the disconnection.

[FurryNutz]

Sure it's not the Torrent program doing something?

[hkccm]

my vpn connection use port 1723, and my BT use a 2xxxx port. I don't see a connection here.....

Before the DIR-868L, I use BT and VPN on DIR-655 without problem.

Anyway I don't mind to stop BT when I open VPN connection.

[FurryNutz]

Could be how the 868L is handling them or how your torrents are configured in conjunction with this newer router.

Hi guys, I really need to get this solve asap.  I really need to find a solution to fix this problem.

I need to forward the port to my synology nas, which has VPN build in.  I tried to forward the port 1723 and keep saying that the port is not available something like that.

[FurryNutz]

Have you tried using Virtual Server instead of PF?

Since this is the top google hit, i want to share.

I was having the same issue, vpn dropping after 2-5 minutes. windows vpn, pptp. i had messed with some settings on the 868l, but i believe it was only limiting 2.4 to use 20hz and set the channel to 1 manually. all AIG under firewall were enabled.

reset to factory settings fixed my issues. 1.09 FW - hw A --didnt even need the newer 1.10b04 fw
